The Hus-Ski.


I hopped on a jet plane up to the homeland for a long holiday weekend. 

All the modern toys are gone, but pops still has a few vintage sleds in lying around. This one is a 1965 Hus-Ski. It's powered by a 247cc JLO single that put out a whopping 10.4 hp back then, so needless to say it can barely get out of it's own way these days. 

The muffler fell off back in '02 when I rode it last, so it's loud as shit, but still fun as can be. 

If any of you have one of these motors lying around the parts pile, please let me know.  A broken recoil ended the days fun, so I'd like to have it fixed for the next decades ride.
